The Hill 03:06
lyrics
buy track
Rises a hill, some on its sides, Men and tears, are good old pals, Rises a hill, there's a crowd around So they failed, and now they hope, Plays a child, the eyes put out, Raped and hit, tortured and tied, His sister smiles, but for how long ? The clock turns. Shame survived. Shallow truth, and empty dialogs, Come here, and give your salt. Shallow truth, and empty minds, Come here, and give your sons. Suffer in silence, there's no god, Come here, and give your soul, Suffer and toil, but there's no-one. Come here, and give your scars. Hopeful sick, they come for what ? How many bones, how many eyes ... ? Raises in me, something attacks, How many heads, how many arms ... ? The procession goes on for miles... Danger rises, another comes. Millions of hearts like hypnotised... Danger rises, another comes. Sat on the very top of his hill, Let me work, I must survive... The collector keeps the accounts. Let me work, I must survive...

A King In Hell 04:54
lyrics

Watch your hands, And watch your crimes You're convinced you're the strongest Hide your face, And hide your mind, You're dirt, but proud of all the... Drugs you deal, The drugs you have, Mo-ney bribe your soul, and... Pay for your car, Pay for the dog, You use to show you're dangerous. So you think you're someone, now, that you're great, that you're brave that you shine, and lighten. You say, you're a prince, you're a king, now, of your block, of its walls, of the men, inside. -------------------------------------- Knife and gun, Kick and punch, A-ni-mals never talk Ready to hit, Ready to flee, Ne-ver care, caus' simply, You are shit, You're on your wall, Pro-fi-teer and li-ar Under the sun, You lay, you dry, High, on your dunghill, but... Still you think you're someone, now, that you're great, that you're brave, that you shine, and lighten. You say, you're the Prince, you're the King, now, of the block, of its walls, of the men, inside.

Gaelic 04:32

All is here, Under the clouds Between the trees, Or under the grass Stones are tales Sunk in oblivion Burnt by the wind Burnt by the snows Strange men lived there, We even retrieve, Some lost fragments ...Another time... History buries, Ruins and souls, But still emerges, A spark of the past To you who lived here, Who danced and laughed I send this message, Through time, And pray, You'll hear my call, And break the silence, To join me here, And cry under rain. To you who believed In Power of things, To you who had faith , In the eyes, Please find the link, We have in common, And fight to make it, Wide and large... ---- Whispers a sign,... Fragile and quiet... Still grows the light... Accross the time... ---- Breath intense, Our eyes are closed, I feel you're here, Something occurs We're quiet but try, To touch each other We're turning around, The present dies Here is the wall I'm falling down, I see your world, And choose the hole. To you who stay, Will you remember That all you can see, Depends on your eyes...? ____________________________ Fingers on my face Dreams Waving colors in the air, Dreams Waving colors as a trace, Fate Is it here around this Cairn? I fall again No remains, no concrete walls, Another realm Not a sort of game, Faith Logic falls Faith Men, I feel your souls, Faith Friends, A hand I hold Faith Men, I feel your souls Faith Friends, A hand I shake ____________________________ I see you now, You come from far, I sense your mind, I sense your heart. You live in doubt, You live on a crest, Where winds push you. World's end... As far as I see, There's nothing but hills, Apathy wins, And boredom brightens. Air carries sickness, Air carries sadness, Rules are made... And I see now why You looked back, Why you called, Why you prayed. So where are your Gods? Where are your Kings? For whom do you fight? For whom could you die? Where is your wife? Where are your sons? Will you return And build your home? Because of your time, Because you're tired, I guess if you try, Buildings and lies, You'll make them fall...

Sharks 04:20
lyrics
buy track
Darkness falls on an angel, Burnt wings and hands. There're tears on his face, There're tears of a God. Thousands of white angels, are falling down, Down from their realm, through the clouds, Down to the world, and down to us. ---------------------------- The blind eyes, turn to the skies, Awful end. Hitting the earth, like eggs on a wall, Divine punishment ‘Arena’, lands of humans, Yet they’re running like mad-ones There're sharks in this sea, Sharks in this sea... ---------------------------- Having fun with a dazed angel, Starts the killing game. His face, corroded by the tears, Like acid on skin, Melts, disappears, turns to porcelain. Just remain two dark holes, No hope, caus’ no doubt...

Testament 03:23
lyrics
buy track
Now my sun is black, my eyes are blind, The words are closing on a nonsense world Almost I don't feel, anything, My memory fades, and my heart bleeds, I remember your eyes, remember your smiles, I opened your heart, and cried in your arms, I even decided to give you my life, And let you see these things we hide, But now, I'm cold, I'm about to go, About to die, and leave you alone, I won't protect you, anymore, Dry your tears, warm up your hands, I don't know if I'll see you again, Maybe centuries before we meet, I hope you're here, but I don't hear you, Yet I miss you, I howl your name...

Cold, Feeds the arm, I'm still at home, A single way and I want to hide, A break, an end, Where there’s no fight, Just a chance to close my eyes, So warm, So deep, A church has gone up in Hell, Here no door, No one, will ever keep me tied... Crowd, Knock down their walls, To hold on – is in vain, Eternal clouds above the ice, A step, a stair, Thrown to the skies, Just a way to touch the light, All so wild, I’m so ill, My hands on the gates, But no door, No one, will ever keep me down...

Crash 02:58
lyrics

Waiting for DISPELL, This world outside froze all, And all, this time, so long, a hole Sinking into nothing, I now can stay hours, Empty, wide, sad and vain, There's no-one in the streets, Just lost children, Believing in the faces they show I used to dream of the man I'd be, Of the things I'd do, And the friends I'd have, I wanted to force me, To always fight, ... Always high Now courage betrays me, I can only hate myself, I'd like to cut my head into pieces, And throw them, into the fire _________________ I stay - alone at home Fixed in light, with my lack of will Can't accept - it's all so quiet, That all ended - but never started I stay - alone at home Fixed in light, with my lack of will Can't accept - it's all so quiet, That all ended - but never started _________________ Time passes, and years go by, Nothing perfect, no real fight, No castle to lay siege to, No sky high enough, to die for... I'm now so old, I can't believe It's me, this wrinkled hand man, It's just like a film, with a long start, No middle, a short end. _________________ I stay - alone at home Fixed in light, with my lack of will Can't accept - it's all so quiet, That all ended - but never started I stay - alone at home I stay - alone at home All ended - it's all so quiet, All ended - it's all so quiet.

The Wind 05:19
lyrics

Legend says: she was born on the shore, No one who saw, no one who knew her mother, Once even whisper, that there was none, That she came alone, Only the sea knows ... Only the sea knows ... She grew up on the coast, wild, Brought up by an old fisherman, who died, Hair in the air, she never wanted tied, Secrets of a child, she holds, inside Sad, she's waiting alone for someone, Breath is thin, air seems tense for a while, Whispering shapes in the mind, Wasted hours of hope and trust, The wind, blows your mind, The wind, tears your eyes, The wind, sees you dying, Just the wind, of a lie Even at night, sea at your feet, Looking for a light, that would kill your fears, You’re still waiting... Still here... Rain, drowns your cries, Rain, smothers light, Rain, you can’t fight, Rain, leaves you tied. --------------------------- Maybe they met one of those evenings, Somewhere in rocks, somewhere in lands, But what is told, is they were both, All and more, much more than love. She was seeing, nothing but him, She was living, for smiles and tears, Even when he said, he was leaving, To see the world, over the seas. She really tried to change, his mind, Even dreamt up stories, for the blind, But they both knew the call was too high, And kissed on the harbour, for the last time. So she waited for him, for months, Fixing her eyes on the horizon, Praying the skies to bring him back, But time was going by... Her tears fell into the sea, Her tears woke something, Her tears burnt the silence, The tears of her child. Story tells: the sea opened its eyes And looked for him, found his corpse, And brought it to her, Brought it to her. The wind, blows their souls, The wind, took theirs eyes, The wind, saw her dying, Just the wind, of their lives.

Cyan-Hide 04:19

Sharp in white light, Sharp and nice, a halo, white, Sharp inside life, Waiting cold, white inside. And tear into laugh, And see you dying, Calls and cries, Won't tie me now. Fall down, old aches and pains, Fall down, Shame and Pride, Wild, true, free in crime, Old slave looks up, high.... ---------------------------- Keep quiet, And show them how you're bright, That you are like the other ones... Obvious is the mark, Tell the stories, they want to hear, But Hide ! Need to forget, For a while you're so tortured, So different, So pure, ...and so wild, Sick and alone, So alive, Hide inside who you are, What counts, What rises, What dies CYAN... Hide for what, when the brain burns the eyes When senses cry When life falls down, further down... ---------------------------- The world of inner side, you hide so hard, No clue, Unreal and true, So close, so warm, so you Hide Cyan, colors, prisms and moods There's something wide, Laying out of time, Of what ? Dreams to forget, For a while you're so tortured, So different, So pure, ...and so wild, Sick and alone, So alive, Hide inside who you are, What counts, What rises, What dies CYAN... Hide for what, when the brain burns the eyes When senses cry When life falls down, further down

CYANHIDE Paris, France

CYANHIDE firstly released 3 albums : Early Projects (1998), Cairns (2000) et Dancefloor (2003)). We did everything alone (self-production), but because of this too huge work, we surrendered for some years, and stopped. Slowly, some new titles were designed until we decided to release them on a brand new album : Propaganda. Since 2018, we are preparing new concerts, and the story continues... ... more
